From WikiLeaks

The clearest corruption link regarding the ZTE imbroglio is Neri admitting that he told GMA that Abolos had offered him a bribe, and that she had responded by telling him not to accept the bribe, but to "go ahead" with the deal. There is so much spurious noise that it remains difficult to divine the "truth" of this matter. ( How sad that in this wonderful, brave country Pinoys have been reduced to placing the truth in quotation marks!) As Bob Dylan said so succinctly: "Money doesn't talk, swears!" Isn't GMA's silence in this matter sufficient in and of itself to render her guilty of conspiracy? Before I wrote this I researched ZTE extensively on the net and could find not a single word spoken about them except in the context of their many successes around the world. Is it conceivable that corruption in this "Christian" nation is so deeply ingrained that it infects even the innocent?
